New Film on American Moon Landing Deletes American Flag to ‘Transcend Borders’

If one were to point to an iconic moment during the first moon landing in 1969, the primary moment to come to mind would probably be Neil Armstrong’s legendary words, “One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.” However, a close second would probably be the planting of the American flag on the rock orbiting the third rock from the sun. . .

According to the U.K. Telegraph, “a new film about (Neil) Armstrong has chosen to leave out this most patriotic of scenes, arguing that the giant leap for mankind should not be seen as an example of American greatness.”

“The film, ‘First Man,’ was unveiled at the Venice Film Festival yesterday, where the absence of the stars and stripes was noted by critics.”

“Its star, Ryan Gosling, was asked if the film was a deliberately un-American take on the moon landing. He replied that Armstrong’s accomplishment ‘transcended countries and borders.’”

Yes, yes it did. And it did so because of American greatness. I really don’t see how that fails to come across, but Gosling has some explanation that sounded a bit like Charlie Brown’s teachers to me.

Watch: Huge Actor Uses Teen Choice Awards Stage to Reach Young Souls

Here’s something to brighten up your Monday: Actor Chris Pratt gave another terrific acceptance speech in which he openly talked about his faith and honored God at the Teen Choice Awards.

Pratt won the Choice Summer Movie Actor award for his role in “Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom.”

“I’m so thrilled to be here; I have not been a teen for quite some time,” Pratt said. “This means a lot to me.”

“I want to thank God. I always do that when I’m up on a big platform in front of a bunch of young faces,” he continued.

“I love God; that’s my thing, I love him! And you should too!”

This isn’t the first time Pratt has publicly called for his fans to love God. In June at the MTV movie awards, Pratt offered advice to the young people in the audience as he accepted the Generation award.

“You have a soul. Be careful with it,” Pratt said. “God is real. God loves you. God wants the best for you. Believe that. I do.” (For more from the author of “Huge Actor Uses Teen Choice Awards Stage to Reach Young Souls” please click HERE)

After Being Destroyed Twice, This Is Now Happening to Trump’s Hollywood Star

The West Hollywood City Council called Monday night for President Trump’s star be removed from the Hollywood Walk of Fame, according to a tweet by the city’s mayor.

“West Hollywood City council unanimously passes resolution asking the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce to remove the Donald Trump star on Hollywood Walk of Fame,” cheered Mayor John Duran on Twitter.

During the meeting, Mr. Duran said the resolution “is not because of his conservative politics or his conservative policies. It is for the abuse of women, minorities, immigrants, the disabled … you’ve crossed a line of decency.” . . .

“Unfortunately some of the comments made by the Trump supporters tonight are a reflection of that anger and angst and divisiveness. If anyone ever needed to solidify my vote on this, the Trump supporters who showed up tonight … pretty much solidified that what we’re doing is right.”

The Council put the resolution on its “consent calendar” for what it describes as “routine matters [that] can be acted on by one motion.” (Read more from “After Being Destroyed Twice, This Is Now Happening to Trump’s Hollywood Star” HERE)

This Question Was Palin’s ‘Last Straw’ During Mock Interview With Comedian

Sarah Palin recently revealed she was “duped” by actor Sacha Baron Cohen, who disguised himself as a disabled U.S. veteran to interview her for his upcoming Showtime series, Who Is America?.

And a source tells PEOPLE that the former Alaska governor, 54, walked out of the prank interview after the disguised Cohen asked her a “horrible” question about Chelsea Clinton.

The interview, which taped in November 2017, was booked through a speaker’s bureau that was working with the former Republican vice-presidential candidate at the time. “The request was very sophisticated and looked legit,” the source says.

“All of it was obnoxious, but I think the last straw was when the interviewer asked about what he claimed was a government-funded sex-change operation for Chelsea Clinton,” the source says. “Cohen was trying to get Governor Palin to say something homophobic and hateful. She takes it personally when anyone goes after the children and families of politicians. She just thought, ‘What a horrible thing.’ She was particularly incensed about that.” . . .

Palin previously shared that she and her daughter were asked to travel across the country for the interview, where she claimed Cohen had “heavily disguised himself as a disabled US Veteran, fake wheelchair and all.” (Read more from “This Question Was Palin’s ‘Last Straw’ During Mock Interview With Comedian” HERE)

Now Hollywood Lib Targeting Don Jr’s 4-Year-Old Girl… ’We’re Coming for Her’

. . .Pat Dussault, a Hollywood writer most recently credited for several episodes of Chop Chop Ninja, is coming under fire for his response to Trump Jr. who had criticized Fonda’s sick suggestion that Barron Trump be kidnapped and raped. . .

“I sincerely apologize to Donald Trump Jr & his family for the reckless tweet that I posted earlier today,” Dussault wrote.

Several things here. First, I don’t know if there’s ever any particularly great way to apologize for suggesting that someone’s 4-year-old daughter ought to be raped, but trying to emphasize that it was a “totally inappropriate attempt at humor” isn’t it.

Second, I always love the boilerplate language emphasizing that they’re alone responsible for what they had to say. Was anyone attributing his words to someone else?

Watch Mega-Actor Preach the Gospel on MTV

Actor Chris Pratt shared a gospel message in an acceptance speech at the MTV awards Monday, interspersing a serious message about God’s love in a list of “9 Rules for Life” for the younger generation.

“This being a generation award, I’m going to cut to the chase and I’m going to speak to you — the next generation — okay,” he said. “I accept the responsibility as your elder, so, listen up. This is what I call ‘9 Rules from Chris Pratt, Generation award winner.”

Some of the rules were humorous or tongue in cheek. “Breathe,” he said. “If you don’t, you’ll suffocate.” Or “Don’t be a turd. If you’re strong be a protector and if you’re smart be a humble influencer.” And of course a poop joke:

“If you have to poop at a party, but you’re embarrassed because you’re going to stink up the bathroom, just do what I do. Lock the door, sit down. Get all the pee out first, and then once all the pee is done — poop, flush. Boom.”

But his points about God were totally serious and seemed to stem from a conservative view of the Christian gospel. “You have a soul, be careful with it,” he said in Rule 2. And later, “God is real. God loves you. God wants the best for you. Believe that. I do.” (Read more from “Watch Mega-Actor Preach the Gospel on MTV” HERE)

‘Dukes of Hazzard’ Star Suggests ‘Bias Against Conservatives’ Landed Him in Jail

“Dukes of Hazzard” and “Smallville” star John Schneider suggested Wednesday that his conservative leanings and support for President Trump may have played a role in his being sentenced to three days in jail for unpaid alimony.

Mr. Schneider, who was released Tuesday from the Los Angeles County Jail after serving five hours of the three-day sentence, told Fox News that his conservative values may have hurt him in court. . .

“I do think there’s a bias against conservatives, Republicans, in Hollywood, but I think if you let that alter how you are, then I question how you are,” he said. “If you believe it, speak it, live it.” . . .

“I supported the last president [even though] I didn’t vote for him, but I supported him because I believe that’s my duty as a United States citizen,” he told Fox. “The difference here is that I did vote [for Trump] and I don’t mind people knowing that.” . . .

“I never saw anything but people being treated with respect with dignity and with humor, which really surprised me, and whatever authority they needed to show in order to keep everybody safe,” he said, adding he was “so very impressed with every aspect of the penal system.” (Read more from “‘Dukes of Hazzard’ Star Suggests ‘Bias Against Conservatives’ Landed Him in Jail” HERE)

Robert De Niro Just Handed Trump’s 2020 Campaign a Blank Check

Sunday night was the 72nd Tony Awards, the annual ceremony that’s supposed to celebrate the best of Broadway. But what’s being talked about more than any of the winners or nominees, co-hosts Josh Groban and Sara Bareilles, or even a moving performance from the Parkland students was the unhinged anti-Trump tirade made by Robert De Niro.

De Niro stepped on the stage to give a simple introduction to Bruce Springsteen’s Tony-nominated show, and immediately went off the rails. . .

De Niro arrived at the Tony Awards thinking he was doing a public service with his profanity-laced stunt and has some sort of moral high ground. He runs with a group of countless A-listers who knew the truth about Harvey Weinstein for decades and didn’t do anything about it. He worked with Weinstein on several films over the years. So spare us the sanctimonious lectures.

Outspoken liberals in Hollywood aren’t the only people who have failed to recognize their own errors in 2016. Democrats continue to push identity politics instead of advocating an agenda that unites all Americans. And the mainstream media allows their disdain for the president to taint its reporting on a constant basis.

What none of them took away from Trump’s shocking victory was how out-of-touch they all were with average Americans. Sure, De Niro screaming like a cranky old man may have played well in viewing parties in LA and New York, but folks in Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, and Pennsylvania probably felt differently. The #Resistance’s nonstop preaching about how bad Trump was in 2016 had an opposite effect on his supporters. In fact, they inadvertently motivated his base, turning their vote into a giant middle finger to the establishment and the elites.

Kim Kardashian Fires Back at Critics of Her Trump Visit – Here’s What She Said

By The Blaze. Kim Kardashian West broke her silence about her visit to the White House to obtain a commutation for Alice Johnson from the president, and she fired back at her critics. . .

“Trump is using you as a political pawn,” Jones said, “so now you sort of, you’ve endorsed him in a way, you’ve kinda given him legitimacy. You might be in a campaign video – he used you.”

“I think Kanye has already been giving him legitimacy, so I don’t you know, in that way, so I don’t think I would be used,” Kardashian responded.

“At the end of the day, he heard me out,” she concluded. “We got the job done.” . . .

“I mean Kanye you know, cosigned, and said that he loves his personality and loves him,” she explained. “And it was very very separate. Like, you know, Kanye obviously knew what I was doing and knew I was working on it ahead of time, but, so that yeah when I hear that, and I’ve heard that, I don’t let it phase me.” (Read more from “Kim Kardashian Fires Back at Critics of Her Trump Visit – Here’s What She Said” HERE)
